@shafakelif is on BBC Front Row this evening talking about her #BookerPrize2019 shortlisted novel, 10 Minutes 38 Seconds In This Strange World. Read some of the best reviews ahead of tonight’s episode. ‘It’s a brutal book, bleak and relentless in its portrayal of violence, heartbreak and grief, but ultimately life-affirming.’ - @guardian. ‘This is a novel that gives voice to the invisible, the untouchable, the abused and the damaged, weaving their painful songs into a thing of beauty.’ - @financialtimes. ‘She should be a source of national pride...this is a novel determined to pay attention to the most alienated, those people discarded in Istanbul’s Cemetery of the Companionless.’ - @washingtonpost.
